729253 - Setup of myapps staging server

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Web Apps :: Infrastructure, defect)

Description

[[e-mail] [:onecyrenus]]

This is going to require a few things. 

nginx, node, rpm's..etc..etc

Currently qa doesn't have access to myapps.mozillalabs.com, so this bug is going to most likely require follow on bugs. 

The machine to setup is: myapps-stage1.vm1.labs.sjc1.mozilla.com

Documenting what has been done so far: 

rpm memcached
ln -s /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/python26

Attempted to install the rpm binaries from 
http://hudson.build.mtv1.svc.mozilla.com/view/9.%20Apps/job/Apps-Sync-RPMS-RHEL6/
unzip / rpm -ivh on the rpm's with limited success.. Need more input as to how to install the rpms

also noticed httpd wasn't installed but running on myapps.mozillalabs. 

yum install httpd

yum install nginx squid mysql

vi /etc/nginx.conf
comment out all the lines. 
ex: 
        #error_page  404              /404.html;
        #location = /404.html {
        #    root   /usr/share/nginx/html;
        #}

setup /etc/nginx/conf.d/appsync.conf

location ~^/(verify|collections|getmanifest|__heartbeat__) {
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto https;
    proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
    proxy_redirect off;
    proxy_pass http://unix:/tmp/gunicorn-appsync.sock;
}

location / {
    root /var/www/static;
}

Make sure the end of appsync.conf includes loading conf.d directory inside the server directive 

        #}
        # Load config files from the /etc/nginx/conf.d directory
        include /etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf;
    }
}

Is AppSync going to be dropped for the staging server? Or are we going to continue to try to set it up?

I believe we will be dropping appsync from the staging server
